    Cool Car in shop, unemployed, so I'm modding in the yard

    Da freaking transmission shop took a week and it was still fucked up when I drove it away so I took it back, now there goes another week and that means another week of trying to borrow a car to get a job and bumming rides off of people I haven't seen in years

    yet somehow I have a mean-looking Volvo bumper chin waiting to get test fitted in the yard...
    and I'm rigging this shit up so that me and my friend can PLAY GUITAR IN THE CAR (bass and regular) through the system (working on a band) and I'm using old radio parts and it's going to have an EQ and VU meters and everything and it's going to be mounted under the dash and the knobs and inputs are going to be put in the door under the cupholders and I have the gear mechanism from a CD player to make it go up and down (hell maybe I should motorize it :p) I just hope it works! I need my damn car back.

    Is anybody doing worse? I could use a :bh: about now :lol

    Oh on the upside I heard the transmission shop guy drive my car and it was stuck in 1st gear and I must say I enjoyed the growl of the Hooker muffler :super:
